Mathematical Methods for Robust and Nonlinear Control EPSRC Summer School / edited by Matthew C. Turner, Declan G. Bates.

The underlying theory on which much modern robust and nonlinear control is based can often be dif?cult for the student to grasp. In particular, the mathematical - pects can be problematic for students from a standard engineering background. The EPSRC sponsored Summer School which was held in Leicest...
